Browse Forums Landscape & Garden Design 1 Nov 18, 2012 10:07 pm Hi there, In June next year my husband and I will be moving into our new home which will need to be landscaped. For the front of the house we have a 60yr old frangipani tree lining the driveway and then we quite like standard roses with ornamental plum for the remainder of the garden. Can anyone give suggestions on nice colourful low shrubs that are easy to maintain? Out the back we are hoping to have a feature tree in the back corner of our block and initial thoughts are a jacaranda but we would like it fairly small (<3m tall) - does anyone know if you can buy minature trees or would I just need to maintain its size? Lastly, we were thinking of some citrus trees to Line our side fences - can you buy standard citrus trees? Thanks in advance for your help!

I thought of a Corymbia for the corner area-some have beautiful beautiful stunning flowers that will attract birds. I'm currently waiting for mine to flower (orange stunning flowers). Do you have a photo of your yard that you could post?
